Borsalino is a 1970 French gangster film directed by Jacques Deray and starring Jean-Paul Belmondo, Alain Delon and Catherine Rouvel.

Rinaldi suggests that Siffredi and Capella should seize control of Marseille's fish market and take it away from Marello.

Afraid of future fights with Siffredi, Capella decides to leave Marseille: but he is shot by an assassin and dies in the arms of his friend.

[6] Originally the film was going to be called Carbone and Spirito, but after there were objections about using the names of real gangsters, the characters were fictionalized and the idea was dropped.

[5]Delon's associate producer, Pierre Caro, said: If you ask me, I think Belmondo was afraid from the first to make a picture with Alain.

Belmondo was annoyed that the title card "an Alain Delon Production" appeared before his name in the credits.

[10] This made it the fourth most watched film of the year, after Le Gendarme en balade, Atlantic Wall, and Rider on the Rain.

It was followed by The Red Circle, MASH, Once Upon a Time in the West, The Things of Life, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Donkey Skin and The Damned.

[6] Variety said "problem is that pic is more a vehicle for its stars' personalities than a more cogent insight into French pre-war organized gangsters.

"[12] Time Out remarked it was "fairly basic as a gangster pastiche ...but not unenjoyable thanks to its loudly stressed period detail and Claude Bolling's jolly score for mechanical piano.
